Chapter 53 Part 2) Meeting Between Ice And Darkness Part 2
🕑 Added 2024-04-10 15:29:51 +0000 UTCThe Demon Queen of Darkness couldn’t help but nod at Desaray’s words. Working together and avoiding conflict would be much easier than trying to wipe her and her people out. Her conditions were not bad either. While this was far from her plans of world domination, the idea that she could take what land she wanted without hindrance was not so bad.
One thing that the Demon Queen of Darkness had learned from reading the materials she found from this world was that citizens were also necessary if she wished to create her own kingdom. At first, she thought that killing all life and living alone was the best course of action, but now… after spending so much time with Death and realizing that having company was not so bad, she was more against the idea of slaughtering. While the urge was strong with in her, it was slowly starting to dwindle.
She wondered if this was how Cinder had come to a realization and became friends with this ice girl instead of enemies. She really had to admit that her way of thinking was wavering for the good. “I will form a new kingdom. The Kingdom of darkness that will allow those who wish to live there live.”
“Oh? Not going to wipe out all living beings anymore?” Desaray asked. She was quite curious why the change of heart.
“If I did that, that would mean getting rid of Death as well and… I can’t do that. Not anymore.” The Demon Queen of Darkness lowered her head. She was actually feeling slightly embarrassed. If it was not for that god guy attacking her and Death, she probably would never have realized her strong feelings for the girl. But now she really understood how she felt, and she did not wish to be without Death in her life.
“Then I will call you Darkness from now on. My people will also stop expanding our borders. The land we have already taken will be our base of operations here. You can also form one on our continent to make communication between our two lands possible. During this time when there is a threat to both of our lands, we should indeed form an alliance. Why don’t we call this the Ice and Darkness Pact?” Desaray was quite proud of the name she thought up on the fly. It was a perfect name for a pact between the two. It would ensure that they would not fight over stupid things without talking it out first. And with her ice needle inside Darkness, she would have the leeway to make things move in the right direction.
Desaray knew this was a tyrannical way of doing things, but Darkness had killed many of her own people. The war they had already fought did not go with out its casualties. If she could avoid war and the loss of life she was more than happy to do so.
“I agree. Put whatever ice needle you need inside me. While I think this is a bit unfair I can understand why you would not trust me. After all, I am a demon queen.” The Demon Queen of Darkness had planned to form a truce now and then destroy them all later on, but after listening to Desaray and remembering everything she had read up until now, she realized this was the best course of action.
“Then I will do that now. We will write up a proper agreement in the coming days. Once you read it, feel free to make any amendments you wish to make. But for now, let’s get Death some medical care as well. If she goes on like this, she will die.” Desaray had used appraisal on Death and saw that she was really not doing well. While outwardly she was healing, inwardly, she was not. Her organs were a mess. Even a demon queen was still mortal.
“T-Thank you…” Darkness was not used to saying such words, but she said them now to her former enemy. This was because she too, was afraid that Death would not make it much longer.
With Juna’s roots, they moved to the base on the coast. Dormar, who was in charge of preparation here, was surprised to hear that the two women who had been brought into medical were actually their sworn enemies. Those same sworn enemies were now their allies.
“Your Holiness, what is the meaning of this?” The Dragon King asked. He had thought the demon queens were their enemies why were they now being treated in their base of all places? He was not the only one to voice their concerns either.
“They are no longer an enemy. We have formed a nonaggression pact with them. We will also stop expanding our territory on this content and shore up our defenses, making this our base of operations here. A new threat that even the demon queens were unable to deal with has appeared. One much stronger than all of us combined. Our main goal now is to work hard on leveling up and trying to grow stronger in the quickest time possible.” Desaray scanned the leaders of each kingdom as she continued in a much colder tone: “Anyone who has a problem with this will be going against me and will be wiped out. I am not trying to be forceful, but we need to stick together, or I will end up turning my kingdom into a full-fledged empire. Does anyone have any more questions about my actions?”
